It Is As It Is, Wall Series #8 signed and dated 2019 (verso) acrylic paint and and canvas on wood 48" x 24" x 2" (123 cm x 64 cm x 6 cm)   A contemporary artist known for her large-scale, tactile paintings that challenge the boundaries between painting, sculpture, and installation, Jane Lee’s It Is as It Is, Wall series continues to explore the relationships between the painting and the wall — with the wall being part of the artwork rather than a usual backdrop. Dominated by peeled surfaces that resemble peeled paint, spread across the canvas, Lee navigates her ongoing inquiry into boundlessness, materiality, and the perception of space. Her art itself walks to the boundaries of painting and non-painting simultaneously, its title referencing a line that evokes the coexistence of opposites, such as form and emptiness, as well as presence and absence.
